“Blair, how’s it going?” Blair’s father, Bennett, who was in charge of Shawn’s department, asked.
“Father, everything went smoothly.” Blair smiled proudly: “It’s all thanks to Shawn. If it weren’t for the fact that something had really happened between Jenny and him, I really wouldn’t have had the chance to kick Jenny away!”
“You did well! However, regardless of what you did, you can’t pursue the matter now. Remember your identity and persona. You are a man who was forcefully cuckolded,” Bennett said.
“Of course, father! According to your request, I’ve already spread the news. Also, that stupid woman, Jenny, thought that I really loved her. She actually slandered Shawn. Now, our final plan has become a success. Shawn is finished!” Blair laughed.
“We can’t be careless. Don’t forget that the boss’s daughter may arrive at the office at any moment. Although we don’t know who she is, we have to be careful. Once we get close to her, we’ll definitely have a bright future ahead,” Bennett said.
“Father, is your information reliable? Is Miss really such an emotional person?” Blair asked.
“Of course, the boss said it himself. Although he only said a word or two, I’m sure of it,” Bennett replied.
“Well, in that case, I’ll continue getting ready,” Blair said.
“Sure, I’ll take care of the higher-ups. This time, you have to maintain your image. Your future is on this. As for that intern, he’ll disappear after this. You don’t have to make any other arrangements,” Bennett said.
…
Coming back to Shawn, after reluctantly saying goodbye to Nina, Shawn quickly returned to the office.
As soon as he entered the company, everyone looked at him differently.
At first, Shawn thought that it was because he had not seen him for a long time and everyone thought that he was a stranger.
He did not care.
But towards the end, he vaguely heard many people pointing at him from behind.
When he was about to clarify things, the other parties left in disdain.
Before he could figure out what was going on, he heard a contemptuous voice: “Hey, isn’t this the Love Saint Shawn? You’re finally back!”
Hearing the voice, Shawn looked over.
Shawn’s expression darkened upon seeing who it was.
It was Laurie.
Laurie had always been prejudiced against him.
He did not know why but he did not care either.
After transmigrating, he became even less concerned.
But what did he mean by that?
“What do you mean, Laurie?” Shawn asked sullenly.
He was no longer the same as before.
He used to be a good person.
He did not have a bad temper.
Many people could bully him.
But now?
Shawn was a millionaire.
It seemed like he was here to work, but he just came to settle his grudge.
Then, he would leave in a carefree manner.
With the change in his status, his mentality had also changed. Therefore, he did not think much of the person in front of him at all.
“Heh, you’re still pretending. Haha, Shawn, I didn’t expect you to be such a person behind my back. I really didn’t expect it!” Laurie laughed.
“That’s right. Shawn, your hypocrisy has been exposed. The fact that you tried to seduce Jenny has been exposed, so you don’t have to pretend anymore.”
“I wonder what’s so good about you. It’s ridiculous that Jenny, who’s so beautiful, would fall for you.”
Many people responded.
Unlike the others, the interns hated Shawn the most.
On one hand, there were limited internship slots. It would be best if one of them could be eliminated.
On the other hand, they were jealous.
People from the upper-class society liked to help each other.
People from the middle-class liked to make comparisons among each other.
People from the lower-class liked to step on others.
This described their current state of mind perfectly.
They were all interns. How could Shawn be so outstanding?
Why would such a beautiful woman like such a loser?
They could not compare to him at all.
Why was there no chance for them?
When everything did not make sense, Shawn became the anomaly.
There were many ways to deal with such outliers.
The most important method was to suppress him.
Shawn was stunned.
What was the meaning of this?
What had happened recently?
What was the deal with Jenny?
He wanted to have a relationship with her, but it had not started yet.
Looking at their performance, it seemed like it was already over!
What the heck, God can testify that I didn’t do anything!
“What are you guys talking about? I’ve been on leave for a while now, so I don’t have a chance to meet Jenny. Don’t spread such lies,” Shawn said with a dark expression.
Shawn knew how scary the minds of humans were.
Especially not long ago, he had just made use of them.
Laurie laughed mockingly: “Lies? Haha, Shawn, Jenny has admitted that you’ve seduced her of your own accord, and that you’re constantly verbally harassing her.”
“But I really admire you. I knew you had a grudge against Blair, but I didn’t expect you to take revenge like this. Thanks to you, Blair and his father have become the joke of the entire company!”
“That’s right!” Someone added, “I advise you to run. Blair and his father will not let you off.”
Shawn fell silent upon hearing this.
He immediately thought of the group of people in New York.
He had only offended those people recently.
However, on second thought, it was not make sense.
They would not lower their own status to make things difficult for him.
But what was the problem?
He had just transmigrated here. According to his previous life’s memories, this incident did not seem to be huge.
His relationship with Jenny was not that bad either.
Jenny could not possibly make things difficult for him with just this.
For a moment, Shawn thought a lot.
Nothing made sense.
Therefore, everything was clear to him now.
These people were deliberately framing him.
As interns, they were not on good terms with each other, and it was very likely that they would do so.
Shawn’s expression darkened at this thought.
These people were really asking for trouble.
Seeing Shawn’s expression, Laurie and the others could not help but feel a little scared.
However, seeing that everyone was looking at them, it was not the time to be afraid. Hence, he braced himself and said, “Shawn, what do you want to do? Do you want to kill and silence me? Your matter has already been exposed. I suggest that you take the initiative to confess. Otherwise, Blair and his father will not let you off. By then, you won’t even have a place in New York City, let alone the company.”
Seeing Laurie’s smug face, Shawn could not help but laugh.
He calmly asked something unrelated, “Laurie, do you guys like to go for runs with or without your clothes?”
“Run?” Laurie was dazed, wondering what Shawn was planning.
He only felt his scalp go numb.
Shawn said nothing more to him.
Laurie did not hide the hatred in his eyes.
Therefore, no matter what happened, Laurie must have played an important role in it.
It’s fine if you don’t appear, but you actually dare to make trouble in front of me. You’re really courting death!
Hence, Shawn decisively made his choice…
